Tangy Beef Chili Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat; cook and stir onion, bell pepper, Anaheim pepper, jalapeno peppers, and garlic in the hot oil until softened.
• Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir beef in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes; add Worcestershire sauce and garlic powder. Crumble bouillon cubes over beef and add beer. Continue to cook , scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet, until liquid is hot, about 3 minutes. Stir beef mixture into pepper mixture.
• Stir crushed tomatoes, diced tomatoes, tomato paste, and wine to the beef mixture. Season with chili powder, 2 tablespoons cumin, brown sugar, pepper sauce, basil, paprika, salt, oregano, and black pepper. Bring to a boil and reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and simmer until meat and vegetables are very tender and flavors have developed in the chili, about 90 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Mix kidney beans into beef and vegetables. Continue to simmer until beans are hot, about 30 minutes more.
• Blend sour cream, cilantro, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon cumin in a food processor until smooth. Serve sour cream mixture with chili.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large saucepan. Add garlic and onion and cook until tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Add beef, crushed red pepper, and black pepper. Cook and stir until beef is browned, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat. Drain and discard fat and excess oil.
• Add tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, chili beans, black beans, and corn to the saucepan and return to low heat. Add cayenne pepper and chili powder. Season with additional black pepper if desired. Add Worcestershire sauce. Blend well and cover. Simmer, stirring occasionally, 20 to 30 minutes.

Steps:

• In a large enameled cast-iron casserole or soup pot, heat the oil. Season the chuck with salt and pepper.
• Add half of the chuck and cook over moderately high heat until browned, about 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the meat to a plate. Repeat with the remaining chuck.
• Add the sausage and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon, about 4 minutes. Add the sausage to the diced chuck.
• Add the chopped onion to the casserole and cook over moderate heat until tender, about 4 minutes.
• Add the garlic and cook for 2 minutes.
• Stir in the chili powder, paprika, cumin and the chuck, sausage and any accumulated juices. Cook, stirring until fragrant, about 1 minute.
• Add the tomatoes and their juices and the water. Cover and simmer over moderately low heat for 1 hour.
• Stir in the beans and simmer uncovered until thickened, about 15 minutes. Season with salt if desired.
• Serve the chili in deep bowls, passing the cheese, scallions, sour cream and cilantro on the side.
